| Re: First SFP Owner Install Completed Thanks for all the kind words guys. I must add that I was somewhat remiss by not thanking some of the people without who's help I could have never pulled this off. Ian Grunes, Tim Osgood and Mike Evangelo all from Dynamic Motorsports in Ohio. These guys gave me access to info that to my knowledge no other dealer in the USA would provide. I can't say enough good things about Ian. This would have been a nightmare without his help. Rich Woerz helped with dropping the engine in (this is NOT a one man job). Also I want to give a special thanks to Steve Cioffi. We have spent hours on the phone comparing modification design ideas, and sorting out procedures to get this thing put together. Steve is a great resource.
This install took nearly 7 weeks after I got the trans (7 months later than promised). Part of the reason it took so long was fab'ing all the bits and pieces. I made countless mounting plates, brackets, fixtures etc that were in some cases, quite complicated. Not everyone out there doing their own install will NEED to do these things. You can just bolt pieces hither and yon as most of the pro installers do. As someone who builds space qualified hardware for a living I was a little more meticulous (read anal) than the average installer.
I've been somewhat overwhelmed by requests for the DVD so I'm charging $1 to cover postage. Send me an email to my personal email address (minerl@theofficenet.com) with your mailing address if you want one. It is much easier to do it that way than trying to go through the Forum's PM system since I have so many requests.
